Instruction
Opening
I will start by allowing the students 5min to study while I take attendance. I will then pass out the exam packets, facedown, and go over the instructions with them.
Learning Activities
After the instructions are given I will have them flip over their exams and put their name on the paper. The first 10 questions will be on slides. They will be given 1min per question for this section of the exam. The next 6 questions are short answer questions worth varying points. The exam will be stopped 5 min before the end of the period.

Closing
I will collect the exams and ask if there were any questions they didn’t understand where they came from or how they related. Were there any questions they were completely stuck on etc?
Assessment
The exam is the assessment for this lesson

Homework
